Semiannual regulatory agenda.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The Acting Chairman of the
Surface Transportation Board is
publishing the Regulatory Flexibility
Agenda for spring 2018.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: A
contact person is identified for each of
the rules listed below.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), 5
U.S.C. 601 et seq., sets forth a number
of requirements for agency rulemaking.
Among other things, the RFA requires
that, semiannually, each agency shall
publish in the Federal Register a
Regulatory Flexibility Agenda, which
shall contain:
(1) A brief description of the subject
area of any rule that the agency expects
to propose or promulgate, which is
SUMMARY:
likely to have a significant economic
impact on a substantial number of small
entities;
(2) A summary of the nature of any
such rule under consideration for each
subject area listed in the agenda
pursuant to paragraph (1), the objectives
and legal basis for the issuance of the
rule, and an approximate schedule for
completing action on any rule for which
the agency has issued a general notice
of proposed rulemaking; and
(3) The name and telephone number
of an agency official knowledgeable
about the items listed in paragraph (1).
Accordingly, a list of proceedings
appears below containing information
about subject areas in which the Board
is currently conducting rulemaking
proceedings or may institute such
proceedings in the near future. It also
contains information about existing
regulations being reviewed to determine
whether to propose modifications
through rulemaking.
The agenda represents the Acting
Chairman’s best estimate of rules that
may be considered over the next 12
months, but does not necessarily reflect
the views of any other individual Board
Member. However, section 602(d) of the
RFA, 5 U.S.C. 602(d), provides:
‘‘Nothing in [section 602] precludes an
agency from considering or acting on
any matter not included in a Regulatory
Flexibility Agenda or requires an agency
to consider or act on any matter listed
in such agenda.’’
The Acting Chairman is publishing
the agency’s Regulatory Flexibility
Agenda for spring 2018 as part of the
Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory
and Deregulatory Actions (Unified
Agenda). The Unified Agenda is
coordinated by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB),
pursuant to Executive Orders 12866 and
13563. The Board is participating
voluntarily in the program to assist
OMB and has included rulemaking
proceedings in the Unified Agenda
beyond those required by the RFA.

SUMMARY: The Acting Chairman of the Surface Transportation Board is

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: A contact person is identified for
each of the rules listed below.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), 5
U.S.C. 601 et seq., sets forth a number of requirements for agency
rulemaking. Among other things, the RFA requires that, semiannually,
each agency shall publish in the Federal Register a Regulatory
Flexibility Agenda, which shall contain:
(1) A brief description of the subject area of any rule that the
agency expects to propose or promulgate, which is likely to have a
significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities;
(2) A summary of the nature of any such rule under consideration
for each subject area listed in the agenda pursuant to paragraph (1),
the objectives and legal basis for the issuance of the rule, and an
approximate schedule for completing action on any rule for which the
agency has issued a general notice of proposed rulemaking; and
(3) The name and telephone number of an agency official

Accordingly, a list of proceedings appears below containing

The agenda represents the Acting Chairman's best estimate of rules
